Chapter 351: Craftsman’s spiritual enlightenment, life-related talents! (6400)
Hearing the village chief’s solemn instructions, the other villagers also nodded.
In fact, let alone being offended, they didn’t dare to have any unnecessary thoughts.
Before this, the villagers of Puteng Village basically lived in their own small villages.
They also heard about what kind of life the villagers who were separated would live.
In a new environment, being out of tune with other people, being ostracized and making things difficult for you are all minor issues.
Seriously, you may even lose your life.
In addition, some lords have very strange tempers. If they don't go well, they will be beaten and abused frequently.
Some lords with quirks will also conduct some cruel and inhumane experiments on these civilians!
Many civilians choose to take their own lives just because they cannot bear this kind of torture.
And this time, their lord is said to be a chosen lord.
These villagers have no idea about the chosen lord, the God-chosen lord.
They only know that being able to live in a new place as a family is something they never dare to dream of.
Even if this lord is harsher and has a weird personality, they can only bear it silently.
At this moment, the old village chief Zelko saw an imposing figure walking in front of him.
He was more than 1.7 meters tall, wearing a set of white satin-like mage robes, and his whole body exuded an astonishing cold air.
They all had a completely different temperament from the nobles and knights he had seen before.
Beside them, there were two little princesses, one big and one small, who looked like they came out of a fairy tale.
That perfect face and flawlessly fair skin instantly attracted the attention of a group of boys and girls in Puteng Village.
As the saying goes, people become better with age. Zelko has lived for most of his life and has already developed the ability to read people.
Therefore, he instantly judged that this person was their lord.
Before Cao Xing arrived.
Zelko quickly looked around and whispered: "Get ready, this is our new lord."
The villagers looked stern, one by one. Like facing a powerful enemy.
At this moment, the village chief seemed to remember something, and he quickly asked: "By the way, where are the two boys Saler and Bodi?"
After hearing this, the villagers shook their heads.
Looking at it, the three figures in front of them are getting closer and closer.
The old village chief didn't care to think so much at this time. He quickly led all the villagers to wait respectfully.
After Cao Xing arrived, the old village chief came directly to him and knelt down.
“This powerful and handsome lord.”
"I am the village chief Zelko, and on behalf of all the villagers of the original Puteng Village, I welcome your return."
"Your wisdom will lead us to prosperity, and your strength will lead us to overcome obstacles."
The old village chief came up with beautiful words.
He was lying on the ground, resting his forehead on Cao Xing's boots, keeping his posture as low as possible.
Cao Xing did not speak, but looked at the more than two hundred figures kneeling on the ground in front of him, frowning slightly.
"Didn't Cao Yi tell you about the rules of this territory?"
Zelko raised his head, a look of confusion appeared on his old face.
"Um...the rules?" He seemed a little confused.
Cao Xing said directly: "Except for those who have made mistakes, there is no need to kneel when you see the lord, you only need to bow."
Hearing this, Zelko was stunned. .
He thought for a moment and nodded quickly: "Master Cao Yi did tell us..."
Cao Xing's eyes suddenly widened, "Then why are you still standing there? Get up."
Hearing Cao Xing's serious voice, hundreds of villagers on the field trembled, and their faces turned pale as paper with fear!
Old village chief Zelko stood up almost subconsciously.
As he stood up, others stood up one after another.
"Crash!"
More than 200 people in Puteng Village stood there, some tall and some short.
They were all kneeling on the ground before, but Cao Xing didn't see clearly.
Now I realize that these people are really thin!
Everyone is as thin as a man with spare ribs.
The old village chief's cheeks were sunken and his cheekbones were high and raised, like rugged rocks polished by time. His hands were bony and the joints were protruding, like dry branches.
Others also looked like refugees who had been malnourished for a long time, with slender bodies as if they could be blown away by a breeze.
In addition, he also noticed that many people here are bringing their families with them.
There are many children among them.
There are children from three or four years old to seven or eight years old.
However, like their parents, they are all pale and thin.
Obviously, this is caused by long-term deprivation of food and malnutrition.
In this world, being able to live and grow up is a good thing, and there is no way to consider other nutritional matters.
These children all looked anxious, looking down at their feet.
But he couldn't help but cast his eyes on Tong Chuchu and Elisa.
As people of the same age, it was the first time for them to see such a beautiful little girl.
Their skin is so fair and their appearance is so delicate, like fairies in the sky, and their clothes are also bright and beautiful.
Compared with them, these two little girls are simply out of the world!
This also makes the children in Puteng Village very envious.
They have also imagined time and time again that they can wear such beautiful clothes like these two little girls.
However, they only dare to think about it and don't dare to make mistakes at all.
After all, these children can feel that although these two little girls are beautiful, they are also very dangerous!
Even the little girl of five or six years old had an aura about her that frightened them!
Faced with the uneasy villagers of Puteng Village.
Cao Xing didn’t say anything to comfort him.
He knew that these villagers had just arrived in a new environment and would need some time to adapt.
So, he said directly: "You should know the specific situation."
"I am the lord here, and my territory is currently short of manpower."
"It just so happens that I have something to do with Baron Fitz Walker, so he arranged for you to be in my territory."
"From today on, you will serve me."
"Is there any problem?"
Village Chief Zelko was stunned for a moment, then shook his head quickly and said: "It is our honor to work in your great territory!"
Old Village Chief I agreed very readily.
After a pause, he continued: "This respected lord, we will work for you wholeheartedly from now on."
"Other than that, what else do you have for us? Request? ”
"Requirements?"
"For example, how long do we need to work every day, or how much work needs to be completed..."
Cao Xing shook his head, "There are not so many requirements, just work hard. ”
“As for whether you are lazy, other staff will supervise you.”
“Any questions?”
After hearing this, the village chief Zelko said with a confused look on his face: "No... no more..."
Including other villagers, they also looked confused.
They thought that after seeing them, the lord would make things difficult and suppress them, and then assign them some hard work.
It turns out that the other party doesn’t seem to have such thoughts?
For a while, everyone couldn’t understand the temper of this chosen lord.
Just as Cao Xing was preparing to directly recruit them all into his territory, he suddenly felt some movement above his head.
There was a noise on the eaves of the high-end residential building overhead.
Then, two figures fell directly from above.
And the place where she fell was the four or five-year-old girl next to the lord!
This sudden scene made the villagers on the scene feel confused at first.
Then a look of extreme horror appeared in his eyes!
However, the situation happened so suddenly that the villagers could not react at all.
Just when those two figures were about to hit Tong Chuchu on the head.
Elisa quickly saw the opportunity, grabbed Tong Chuchu's arm and pulled her over.
Cao Xing's reaction was also very quick, and he directly raised his staff.
An ice wall rose out of thin air and lifted up the two figures who were about to fall to the ground.
“Ouch!”
With a scream, two thin figures slid down from the ice wall and sat down on the ground.
No harm was done.
The two people who fell down covered their buttocks with lingering fears on their faces.
They looked to be two children of thirteen or fourteen years old, also very thin.
At this time, after the villagers saw their faces clearly, they were all pale and stiff with fear!
Zelko rushed over almost immediately, grabbed the arms of the two children, and asked in a trembling tone!
"Saler, Bodie! What are you doing!"
In this situation of more than 20 degrees below zero, a layer of cold sweat already appeared on his forehead.
Everyone could see that the two girls next to the lord were definitely important people around him.
If something goes wrong, the entire village will lose their lives!
The two children were so frightened by the village chief's roar that they trembled all over.
They came to their senses at this time and knew that they had gotten into trouble, and they had gotten into big trouble!
He quickly got up from the ground and apologized hastily: "I'm sorry! Mr. Village Chief!"
The old village chief didn't care so much at this time and grabbed their shoulders directly and pushed the two children in front of Cao Xing.
"Hurry up and apologize to the lord and the girl next to him, hurry up!"
The two children were also frightened. They were like puppets on strings. Arriving at Elisa and Tong Chuchu.
Then he knelt down directly.
"I'm sorry! Dear Lord, and this respected lady, please forgive us for being reckless and offending you!"
Elisa and Tong Chuchu held hands with each other and looked at Cao Xing with blank expressions.
At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly solidified, and everyone held their breath.
Including the two children on the ground, their bodies were shaking constantly.
Everyone involuntarily glanced at the lord from the corner of their eyes, waiting for his judgment.
It can be said that the lives of almost everyone in the village are in the hands of this young man!
Cao Xing said nothing. He could see that although the old village chief was scolding the two children, he was actually protecting them.
If you encounter some bad-tempered lords in other territories, the actions of these two children just now are enough to cost them their lives.
In serious cases, it may even involve an entire village of villagers.
This is why they are so afraid.
Cao Xing waved his hand and said: "Get up first, remember to be careful next time and don't climb so high."
"If you fall, you will break your muscles and bones."
The high-end shelter is twelve meters high. If you fall from such a high place, with the physique of these two little guys, they will break their legs. It's light.
Hearing this, the depressing atmosphere on the field suddenly stopped.
Everyone's expressions changed from fear and fear to confusion.
It seems that with the words of this adult, an approaching storm disappeared directly and invisible.
All the villagers in Puteng Village are still in a state of sluggishness.
Tong Chuchu next to him said: "Get up, stop kneeling on the ground, big brother will be angry!"
"I didn't blame you, you didn't hit me Me."
"Don't worry, big brother won't punish you."
Tong Chuchu's innocent words sounded.
It also made the villagers of Puteng Village breathe a sigh of relief.
The two children who made mistakes stood up from the ground in a trance, as if in a dream.
The old village chief Zelko also came back to his senses. He said gratefully: "You are really a kind lord. May the goddess bless you."
"And this beautiful Miss, you are as pure and kind as the stars in the sky." The eyes of the more than 200 villagers at the back, including Cao Xing and Tong Chuchu, were filled with gratitude!
Cao Xing shook his head and said nothing more.
Recruitment invitations were issued directly to them.
The next moment, the system prompt appears.
[Successfully recruited: Villagers Zelko/Abu/Betsy/Anfinson... have joined your territory, the population of the territory is +237...]
…
There were more than two hundred people in total, all ordinary creatures.
The population of Cao Xing's territory increased by more than two hundred again.
After the last big promotion, his population has already exceeded one thousand.
The bulk of them are naturally the combatants.
An elite creature accounts for 2 people, 3 bosses, and so on...
He took a look at the population of his territory.
[Territorial population: 1462/3000]
“It’s okay, the population limit is still sufficient.”
“Every time the lord’s mansion is upgraded, it can increase. With a population of 1,000, reaching level 10, there will be a population of 5,000."
Then, Cao Xing glanced at the attributes of these newcomers.
[Chief of Grapevine Village: Zelko]
[Level: Level 9 (First-Level Ordinary Creature)]
[Health Value: 540/883 (Blessed by the Pale Tree)]< br>
[Attack power: 47~49]

[Status: Frost Rot]
[Satisfaction: 53]
[Loyalty: 66]
…
A slight tinge appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes of surprise.
Unexpectedly, this village chief turned out to be a rare high-level talent.
That advanced wine-making technology is amazing. It directly increases the success rate by 30%, and also has a certain probability of improving the quality of the wine.
You must know that when brewing ordinary wine, there is basically no probability of failure.
But things like those high-end wines are different.
The materials required for this high-grade wine are too high-grade, and the brewing process is many times more complicated.
If one step goes wrong, all previous efforts will be wasted.
So, a 30% success rate is still very powerful.
As for the subsequent effects, improving the quality...
I happen to have a [Dream Magic Wine Recipe] in my hand, which is golden quality magic wine.
Will it turn orange after improving a quality, which is epic quality?
Thinking of this, Cao Xing started to look forward to it.
However, in order to brew [Dream Wine], you not only need to collect materials, but also need an [Advanced Brewing Workshop].
It will take some time to prepare.
In addition to the village chief, he also discovered that the villagers of these Puteng Villages all have skills more or less.
Of course, most of them are [Junior Planting Mastery].
Through their names, Cao Xing also knew that the villagers in this village used to make a living by planting a kind of winter grape.
So it’s not surprising that there is [Planting Mastery].
Cao Xing thought: "The quality of this group of villagers is quite high. If so many of them are proficient in planting, we can let them specialize in cultivating crops."
"I just waited. After a while, my first batch of Kulin barley and cold dew rice will mature, and the farmland area will be ready to expand.”
The livestock industry in his territory has already seen some improvement.
Agriculture is just getting started.
If these villagers are used well, they can bring a lot of benefits to Cao Xing.
Of course, he also noticed that these villagers seemed to have a disease called [Frost Rot].
According to the system, this disease is caused by long-term malnutrition and long-term inhalation of cold breath, which causes cold air to invade the internal organs.
Villages who suffer from this disease basically do not live long.
But fortunately, this is not an infectious disease, so there is no need to worry about other people in the territory being infected.
Cao Xing continued to think: "My Yuncai yak milk can treat some hidden diseases."
"It should also be used to treat these frost rot diseases."
"But let's forget it for now. Let's cultivate loyalty for a while and wait until they make a contribution."
Although Cao Xing doesn't like the feudal rules of nobles and commoners, he is not a holy mother.
It is impossible to see patients and spend a lot of resources to treat these people.
If this is the case, there will be too many patients in this world and it will be impossible to save them.
Cao Xing glanced at these villagers one by one.
He wanted to see if there were any other talents.
Then, his eyes stayed on the two children in the crowd.
It was the little guy who just fell from the roof.
[Puteng Village Villager: Saler]
[Level: Level 6 (First-Level Ordinary Creature)]
[Health Value: 462/568 (Given by the Pale Tree) Fu)]
[Attack power: 31~35]
[Combat Skills: None]
[Life Skills: Primary Planting Mastery]
[Talent: Craftsmanship Insight (born with a strong curiosity and thirst for knowledge about various crafts, learning various When using life-like skills, speed up learning by 30%)]
[Status: Frost Rot]
[Saturation: 53]
[Loyalty: 66]
…
Including another child named Bodie, who also has the talent of [Ingenuity of Craftsmanship].
A look of surprise appeared in Cao Xing's eyes again.
“Do you actually have this kind of talent that can greatly speed up the learning of life-related skills?”
"These two little guys are rare talents!"
Talent and skills are different.
【Talent】is innate and is present at birth.
Under normal circumstances, talent will grow as it continues to grow.
In addition, in the process of growth, the power of blood in the body is activated, and new talents will be discovered, such as Volibear's [Behemoth Bloodline].
Of course, there are also some special situations, such as dragon-blooded warriors who have the blood of other races integrated into their bodies, which will also activate new talents.
The [Skills] and [Life Skills] are both acquired through diligent study and practice.
Therefore, beings with talents are actually more precious than beings with advanced skills.
After all, one is born and the other is acquired through practice.
When Cao Xing saw the talent of [Craftsman’s Soul Enlightenment], he knew that these two children should become good life-related talents in the future.
Such as forging, refining medicine, painting, etc.
After thinking for a moment, Cao Xing decided to send the child to the blacksmith shop to let them learn blacksmithing techniques.
With their talents, they can become blacksmith apprentices or even junior blacksmiths in no time.
Harold's place happens to be quite busy at work, so these two children can go over and help.
So, Cao Xing shouted directly: "You two, come here."
Hearing the sound, the two children turned pale with fright.
Including the villagers, their expressions also changed.
They thought that the lord had repented and suddenly wanted to punish them again. They were all frightened to the point of despair.
But Cao Xing smiled and shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I don't want to punish you, I just want to ask you a few questions."
Hearing this, everyone on the field once again He breathed a sigh of relief.
"What were you doing when you climbed up to the roof just now?"
These two children didn't look so naughty.
One of the children named Saler replied: "Dear Lord, we just climbed to the roof to see how this house was built."
"In our Puteng Village, we have never had such a high house, so I was very curious."
Bodie next to him also echoed: "Yes, yes, we also want to build such a big house in the future. Stay for moms and dads!”
After hearing this, Cao Xing nodded slightly.
As expected, he is a being with the talent of [Craftsman’s Mind], and he is curious about the world and the basic structure of some buildings.
If placed on Blue Star, these two children might become masters in mathematics or physics in the future.
Cao Xing continued: "You two are not bad."
"Now I need two blacksmith apprentices in my territory. Are you interested in learning blacksmithing?"
The panic in the eyes of the two children disappeared and gradually turned into confusion.
"Forging?"
"Yes, just blacksmithing."
Hearing this, the two children did not speak.
Their parents have already said excitedly: "Saler, Bodie, hurry up and promise the lord!"
"This is an opportunity for you two, hurry up and say yes!"
They seemed more excited than their own children.
Including the old village chief and other villagers, they all looked at the two children with excitement.
And they responded and replied without hesitation: "We are willing! Dear lord!"
Cao Xing nodded and said: "Very good, your choice is wise."
At this moment, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The old village chief could hardly hold back his tears at this moment, and said with emotion: "It's great, our Grapevine Village is going to have a blacksmith, and we no longer have to grow grapes for generations..."
"Great..."
